2011 Domaine Ramonet Les Ruchottes

"Deft but not invisible oak treatment serves as a backdrop for the elegant and pure aromas of petrol, white flowers, pear and lovely spice nuances. There is a very classy mouth feel to the delicious and relatively big-bodied yet refined medium-bodied flavors that possess a fine sense of vibrancy as well as plenty of power and punch on the well-balanced, complex and lingering finish. This is most impressive for such a young Ruchottes that can already be enjoyed yet the firm acid spine should ensure a long life. 2011 is another fine vintage for what is in my view consistently the best of the Ramonet 1ers. *Outstanding*" 93/100 - Burghound
